history Kylo Ren was born as Ben Solo, son to war heroes Princess Leia Organa and Han Solo. He grew to develop Force Sensitive abilities at a young age, via the strength of his mother's bloodline and the Skywalker lineage. Ben had been trained in the ways of the Jedi by Luke Skywalker, his maternal uncle, for a time before they parted ways. He became Kylo Ren once he had been seduced to the dark side of the Force and joined the Sith. This was caused by his uncle attacking him in his sleep, when the Jedi Master sensed the darkness that had long been growing in his heart. This caused Ben to defend himself and then destroy the thing Luke loved the most: his budding rebirth of the Jedi Order. For the last several years he has trained in the ways of the Sith under the tutelage of evil dictator Supreme Ruler Snoke, aiming to be his successor. This mixture of disciplines makes him a deadly foe on the battlefield. A more detailed history can be found here: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Kylo_Ren personality Kylo Ren is a ruthless creature at first glance. The mask he wore once is the symbol of his deadly strength as a Commander of the First Order. He does not hesitate to kill people and lay waste to his enemies. He acts with a ferocity and darkness that mirrors Darth Vader in his rise to power. Darth Vader also happens to be Kylo Ren's greatest mentor. His wish is to be the most powerful conquering force the galaxy has ever seen, without the weaknesses that caused his grandfather, Darth Vader, to fall to the power of the Light. This obsession and the years of abuse inflicted upon him by Snoke cause a great unbalance in his heart and in his actions. He is often times emotional and unstable, prone to fits of rage that appear in bursts. While he tries to portray a sense of calm, Kylo Ren is like a walking storm. Beneath the mask he is a frightened and lonely young man, betrayed by his family and struggling to hold his tenuous place as Snoke's apprentice and prove his worth. Ben is emotional and volatile, bottling up sorrow and rage and channeling them into his strength as Kylo Ren. While Snoke tries to suppress who he really is, banning the use of his birth name, he also mocks Ben frequently for his heritage, claiming he has "too much of his father's heart in him" when he shows a moment of weakness to him. Ben suffers years and years of this abuse and frustration until he finally kills Snoke, with Rey's help. While Ben has tried to close himself off from the Light, his sentimentality for his family shows itself constantly. He feels betrayed by Luke but still holds love and regret for his parents. Having murdered his father, throughout much of the Last Jedi Ben is tested in his resolve to put what happened behind him. He is tested when faced with the possibility of killing his mother and fails, still struggling with the fact that he murdered his father. His ties to his family and to the Light are not so easily extinguished, as much as he tries to do so. His relationship with his subordinates, is more ruthless and cold. He often uses anger and shows of force to put his underlings in line, as well as aggression towards General Hux to show him he cannot be easily overlooked. When he kills Snoke he forces Hux to submit to him without hesitation. As for his relationship with Rey, Ben shows a less awful side. He wants Rey to know the truth of what happened to him and that Luke Skywalker is not the hero the rest of the world sees. After their first battle they develop a connection through the Force, supposedly orchestrated by Snoke. They begin to develop a kinship as a result of the connection and Rey tries to convince him to turn to the Light, which he is still resistant to. abilities Force Stasis: Halting the movement of an oncoming object or person.
